The Age of Hypochondria: Interpreting Romantic Health and Illness - Palgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Cultures of Print
G. Grinnell
Examining the ways in which hypochondria forms both a malady and a metaphor for a range of British Romantic writers, Grinnell contends that this is not one illness amongst many, but a disorder of the very ability to distinguish between illness and health, a malady of interpretation that mediates a broad spectrum of pressing cultural questions.
